With the help of N:N mapping, all addresses of the LAN can be translated to
a new address range for the coupling with the other network. The network of
company A e. g. will be translated to 192.168.1.x, the network of company B
to 192.168.2.x. Under these new addresses the two LANs are now reachable
for the respective other network. The station from the network of company A
is now addressing server 1 of company B under the address 192.168.2.1. The
addressee does not reside anymore within the own network, the inquiry is
now passed on to the gateway, and the routing to the other network is wor-
king as desired.
Remote monitoring and remote control of networks
Remote maintenance and control of networks become more and more impor-
tance because of the possibilities given by VPN. With the use of the nearly ubi-
quitous broadband Internet connections, the administrator of such
management scenarios is no longer dependent of the different data commu-
nication technologies or expensive leased lines.
